“Few places are as legendary as Carnegie Hall. To play on that great stage in New York is the ultimate dream of every musician. The fact that this dream will now become a reality for the Brussels Philharmonic is a fine, and well deserved confirmation of the journey we have made to date: one that in recent years has been based on clear ambitions, with an explicit artistic plan, and was achieved thanks to the sustained commitment and hard work of our musicians, administrative staff and board of directors. For, as the equally legendary saying goes: How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practise, practise, practise!”
